A 50 Ib block A is attached to a wire that is wrapped around the
shown flywheel of 30" radius and I = 12 ft-lb-s². The system is
released from the rest. Neglect the effect of friction, determine
(a) the acceleration of the block A, (b) the speed of the block A
after it has moved 10 ft.

The "flying car" is a ride at an amusement park which
consists of a car having wheels that roll along a track
mounted inside a rotating drum. By design the car cannot
fall off the track, however motion of the car is developed by
applying the car's brake, thereby gripping the car to the
track and allowing it to move with a constant speed of the
track, vt = 3 m/s. The rider applies the brake when going
from B to A and then releases it at the top of the drum, A,
so that the car coasts freely down along the track to B
(0 = π rad). Neglect friction during the motion from A to
B. The rider and car have a total mass of 390 kg and the
center of mass of the car and rider moves along a circular
path having a radius of R = 9.8 m. (Figure 1)

A block with some mass m is connected to a string that is attached to the ceiling. The block on the end of the string is going around a circular path with a constant radius r and constant speed. Applying Newton's second law to the x component of force seperately in order to find the expressions for the tension of the string in terms of mass m, angle θ, and constant g. The x direction includes centripetal acceleration.
